This calmness, and their detachment can be very good in a real crisis, though. Regardless of any other personality quirks, they have nerves of steel. And has anyone observed how a lot of them have a knack of avoiding serious trouble?

LOL

All of my Aqua and Sag has me really flighty, in my head. And Sags are known for wanting to travel. I have no funds to go anywhere or do anything that I really want to do and it makes me soo restless.

My two closest Aries guys both have Mercury in Pisces. I always "see" their brains working. I'm so attracted to what's going on in the heads but trying to get anything out is like pulling teeth. But, they'll listen when I speak. I want feedback! LOL.

I'm sort of aware that I come across as calm. My friends say that I have two expressions. Dazed and brooding. So when I'm dazed, they assume I'm daydreaming. When I'm brooding, they're like, "Aww, what's wrong?" So I have a crush on one of my Aries friends and my Sag friend will sit next to me, watching my expressions when I think she's watching my Aries friend play his guitar. She's also a psych major. Get..out..of..my..head. LOL. Let me brood in peace. :P Nah, I'm glad she cares, I'm just not used to having someone read my expressions like that. I can also make my eyes stone cold when I'm ****** off. It tends to scare most people away, but some exboyfriends thought it was hot. Exboyfriends, that's why they're ex, because they liked to rile me.

its just they choose, like you say, to be amused. or maybe they cant figure out a way to walk away from it, or maybe they are too kind a souls to leave when there is something good in the other person that they choose to hang on to..and choose to ignore the rest.

This is increddibly true for me, dead on actually...

... and I always end up looking like the bad guy because really I cared too much to just let it go... it comes out that I was 'playing games' or some crap...

Just had to say, that is something I am trying fiercely to get over.

What the heck is that all about?

BTW, to say that ALL Aquarians play mind games is generalizing... and I will tell you this right now, I do play games at times, but not the kind you are talking about, and I will most certainly admit a folly when I have made one. You can think that is bollocks if you want to (and I can see you have made up your mind on that one), but I am speaking the honest truth, as true as I know it for MySelf.

Basically, our detachment and withdrawal has nothing to do with you. We are taking our time to clear our minds. I know that with some friends I have, we get so messed up in conversation that I feel a little breathing time would put the both of us in a better perspective. Maybe this appears to be cold, but we're just trying to aerate the place. You know what it's like when a room hasn't been cleaned out and the doors and windows haven't been opened.

I've read that Pisces like to test their SO, to see if they pass the test. I can see that's evident here. My Gemini ex would admittedly touch a sensitive subject of mine to rile me up, just to see where the relationship was. He'd tell me that my religion was a fad, just to see if I thought he was worth arguing with. Second time he did this, I decided to fail that test.

I'm a Virgo with tons of Libra in my chart and for some reason ~ Aquarians in general are my mates... they let me be myself - crazy and free - (I have Sag Asc) - and I offer them the same.

We never restrict each other's individual freedoms or expect the other to compromise any personal identity, "live and let live" - type attitude ... these friendships have lasted since middle school too ... and they're like my true soul mates.

Whenever an Aqua does something from the heart, I usually know it's sincere. And even if it takes time to build a deep friendship, you know it's one that's true and lasting. Very devoted friends after a long time. (Of course, most of them have Venus in Cap.)

As for the guys, they can be the same maybe, if you're open to any possibility. I haven't been in a long-term serious commitment with one, but the ones I've been involved with always remembers the connection even after many, many years later and for some reason, the attraction always remains magnetic no matter how long ago.

I adore Aquarians for who they are and just for being true to themselves/ my motto: whenever they feel comfortable revealing themselves to me, however long it takes, it's usually worth the wait...

They never forget do they the ones they love...

*Blink*

Like all air signs, Aquarians carry the double-edged gift of being able to detach their reason from their emotions, allowing them to rationalise their feelings and override base instincts or lustful passions. This sign has a natural disposition towards assessing everything through reason, so that even where there is an understanding of emotional drives, it is a reasoned understanding, such as one derived from a study of emotional behaviour. An Aquarian may lack the empathetic understanding of those who draw from painful personal experience, but their viewpoint is reliably impartial and unbiased, motivated along a course of action that seeks to be fair and logical.

The problematic side to this quality is that Aquarians often remain slightly detached from deeply emotional experiences, feeling ill-at-ease with intimacy and embarrassed or uncomfortable when they are expected to demonstrate emotion. In close personal relationships they can seem aloof, dispassionate and stand-offish, particularly to those whose expectations are towards ardent infatuations requiring heavy emotional investment. New lovers are often disappointed to find that the freely expressed charm that radiates in social settings and early acquaintance remains static in intimacy and doesn't develop into passionate expressions of romantic obsession for a love that transcends all reason and boundaries. Thus the Aquarian is often berated for being emotionally 'cool'.

I might be the odd one out but I do feel some people tend to "judge a book by it's cover", ie judging what the characteristic of a person will be by their sun sigh. I'm a Taurus with an Aqua man. So when someone see's that and only that, their view might be that it is not a good combination, but yet there is so much more to us. So many other influences and our own free will. I strongly believe that the whole chart has to be taken in effect in order to see what lies in a person.
I suppose this is really pertaining to a few posts that I've seen, not all Venus in Gemini cheat, not all Aqua's have problems with emotions, and not all Venus in Taurus are faithful. I realize that this is such a simple thing I am posting and something we all already know, but I felt the need to post it because I've seen so many times people say "Virgo are supposed to be this way, Cancers this way and so on.
Now I am Taurus, but I'm not possessive, or really practical I need to be actually, nor can I hold on too money that way Taurus is supposed to and I really really need to work on that lol. I love my home and decorating it. I like to travel, but not be away from my home for a long time. I work in the metaphysical field and love it. I'm open minded and don't feel the need to compete with anyone. Although now I can be very stubborn, but I can also admit when I'm wrong, which is just rarely lol JUST KIDDING.

I feel like sometimes astrology sort of promotes a form of bigotry in a way, which is not what it's meant for. Really, I think astrology just helps people better understand people and how to make things work.

I still have a hard time with Tauruses. Man oh man, that's just like the antichrist of astrology for me. If I met one and fell in love with them, I'd be doomed! LOL. I'd go for it, but I'm sure it'd hurt.

I do believe mind games mess up a lot of people, for example this Venus in Aqua I was dating, made a date with me that was so confusing I accidentally stood him up. Now when he sees me he thinks it's a mind game because I dont' talk to him right away. So he flashes me a weird look and stomps away. When I confronted him about the date in the first place he ripped into me with al sorts of sarcasm which hurt.

Now he played the game on himself, and now he's hurt and angry but we both are in the same position. I would like to call him up and talk but he never answers the phone to anyone unless its' someone significant. So, I can write his work, or just run into him again, and it's such a game. I wish just once he would try and understand from another's point of view.

He is really cute though, but so out of reach, after a year he is still doing this. He's a Capricorn Sun, and Libra Moon, Capricorn Mars. So now, I am positive on a good night i will capture him, realize I do not love him and let him go, angering him even more.

I did this with another Aqua/Venus Pisces that took an entire year to get a date alone with, and by then the allure was gone. He loved me but it was like a dream, we kissed, made love, talked, had dinner, I felt I had played all the right games but still he didn't know me at all. I knew him but he was never going to get close to anyone in his life.

The only way would have been to move in with him, and he had a roomate. Now I would have the confidence, I tell myself, to say let me move in. But I am so hard to live with and so unaffectionate sometimes for a Taurus (Saturn in the 5th), it's really rough.

Every year I say I will ask someone to move in with me, and I never do, one day..with someone with enough water in his chart, it will happen.
